We call for the responsibility of the director of the school in Kać and the mayor of Novi Sad for celebrating a war criminal

Youth Initiative for Human Rights in Serbia (YIHR Serbia) requests from the Ministry of Education to determine the responsibility of Verica Letić, the principal of the elementary school “Đura Jakšić” in Kać, for the participation of convicted war criminal Nebojša Pavković in a public class organized by this school on April 20th on the topic “Košare: Stories of Heroes” in the hall of this school. According to the daily newspaper “Politika” and the video report of the “Gradske info” portal, the mayor of Novi Sad, Milan Đurić, also spoke at the public event. That’s why we call on the councilor groups in the Assembly of the City of Novi Sad to initiate the impeachment of the mayor because his presence supported Pavković’s participation in this event and normalized the presentation of a war criminal as a hero in front of an audience that included elementary school students.
